“I have been a student of Tom Hess for several years now. During that time I have advanced my playing and musical skills to a level I could never have imagined when I first began playing. I am also well on my way to developing the career I always dreamed about. Finally I am happy to say that I found a very good friend and mentor who is a never ending source of inspiration, motivation and wisdom for me. I am honored to know Tom and to study with him!”
